The multiscale environment of AGN across cosmic time

Rationale

Advancements in instrumentation and the development of new facilities have enabled the study of AGN with unprecedented detail, ranging from their nuclear engines to their host galaxies, halos, and large-scale megaparsec environments. Significantly, these studies can now be conducted from the local universe, to the cosmic noon, and out to the highest redshifts accessible, also thanks to the current and next-generation massively multiplexed spectroscopic facilities. These observational results provide new constraints and pose new challenges for theoretical models and state-of-the-art cosmological simulations. The conference will convene leading experts from diverse career stages, representing observational and theoretical perspectives on each of the distinct scales surrounding AGN. The conference's overarching objective is threefold:

• to showcase the most effective observational strategies and constraints;
• to address inconsistencies with prevailing theoretical models;
• to propose and discuss innovative strategies to enhance our comprehension.

The Ringberg Castle

The conference will be held at Schloss Ringberg, overlooking the Tegernsee on the foothills of the Bavarian Alps (Germany).
